The  simplified  spellings  used  in  this  book  are  selected  from  the  list  recommended 
for  general  adoption  by  the  foremost  living  scholars  in  English  and  by  the  latest  and 
most  authoratativ  dictionaries;  i.  e.  the  English  philoiogical  society,  the  American 
philological  association  and  the  Century  and  Standard  dictionaries.  The  latter  gives 
all  the  amended  forms  in  alfabetic  order  among  its  regular  entries,  while  the  Century 
and  all  issues  of  Webster  since  1894  append  the  full  list  of  3,500  words. 


Abridged  Decimal  Classification" 


EXPLANATION 

Before  beginning  to  use  the  classification  at  least  the  paragrafs  in  large  type 
should  be  carefully  read.  Those  interested  will  find  still  fuller  explanation  in  the 
smaller  type. 

This  abridgment  is  made  in  answer  to  a  strong  demand 
for  a  short  form  adapted  to  the  needs  of  small  and  slowly 
growing  libraries.  They  wish  short  class  numbers,  but  it 
is  a  mistake  to  assume  that  they  will  have  only  works  on 
general  subjects.  Even  the  smallest  library  is  likely  to  have 
a  few  books  or  pamflets  on  the  most  specific  topics  of  the 
omitted  subheads,  and  as  these  minor  subjects  will  differ  in 
each  library,  it  is  obviously  impossible  to  make  any  abridged 
classification  that  will  meet  every  want.  Cases  will  cer- 
tainly arise  that  can  be  met  only  by  the  unabridged  classifi- 
cation, which  aims  to  include  all  subjects  treated  in  books, 
pamflets,  or  articles. 

(See    also    Relativ   subject    index,   p.  7 ;   Use   of   index, 

P-  x3-) 

Change  from  short  to  full  form.     These  short  (three-figure) 

forms  can  be  changed  to  the  full  class  numbers  at  any  time 
without  other  alteration  than  adding  extra  figures  to  those 
here  given.  « 

Plan.  In  this  classification  the  field  of  knowledge  is  di- 
vided in  nine  main  classes,  numberd  1  to  9.  Cyclopedias, 
periodicals,  etc.  so  general  in  character  as  to  belong  to  no 
one  of  these  classes,  are  markt  o  (naught),  and  form  a  tenth 
class.     Each  class  is  similarly  separated  into  nine  divisions, 

a  The  confusion  and  annoyance  to  the  many  users  of  this  system  caused  by  print- 
ing unauthorized  variations  have  forced  the  publishers  to  insist  strictly  on  the  pro- 
tection afforded  by  the  copyright  laws.  Every  library  and  individual  user  has. 
however,  entire  freedom  to  make  such  variations  as  he  thinks  he  needs,  under  the 
simple  restrictions  found  necessary  to  protect  the  rights  of  others  as  explaind  on 
page  19,  Letter  notations  for  changes. 


4  Abridged  Decimal  Classification 

general  works  belonging  to  no  division  having  o  in  place 
of  the  division  number.  Divisions  are  similarly  divided  into 
nine  sections,  and  the  process  is  repeated  as  often  as  nec- 
essary, but  in  this  abridgment  o  is  not  used  beyond,  the 
third  figure.  Thus  512  means  Class  5  (Natural  Science), 
Division  1  (Mathematics),  Section  2  (Algebra),  and  every 
Algebra  is  humberd  512.  This  class  number,  giving  class, 
cUv)s\on>  .section'  and  sub-section,  if  any,  is  applied  to  every 
book  and  pamflet  belonging  to  the  library. 

Where  o  occurs  in  a  class  number,  it  has  its  normal  zero 
value.  Thus  a  book  numberd  510  is  class  5,  division  1,  but 
no  section;  i.  e.  the  book  treats  of  division  51  (Mathe- 
matics) in  general,  and  is  limited  to  no  one  section,  while 
geometry  which  is  so  limited  is  markt  513;  500  indicates  a 
treatise  on  science  in  general,  limited  to  no  division.  A 
naught  occurring  in  the  first  place  would  in  the  same  way 
show  that  the  book  is  limited  to  no  class ;  e.  g.  a  general 
cyclopedia  which  treats  of  all  nine  classes. 

The  books  are  arranged  on  the  shelves  in  simple  numeri- 
cal order,  all  class  numbers  being  decimal.  Since  each  sub- 
ject has  a  definit  number,  all  books  on  any  subject  must 
stand  together.  These  tables  show  the  order  in  which  sub- 
jects follow  one  another.  Thus  512  Algebra  precedes  513 
Geometry,  and  follows  511  Arithmetic. 

Summaries.  The  first  page  of  tables  shows  the  10  Classes 
into  which  all  topics  are  divided.  The  next  page  shows  the 
nine  Divisions  of  each  of  the  10  classes,  and  is  useful  as  a 
bird's-eye  view  of  the  whole  scheme. 

Tables.  Following  these  two  summaries  is  the  abridged 
classification,  which  repeats,  in  proper  order,  all  the  classes, 
divisions,  and  sections,  with  such  sub-sections  as  are  used  in 
this  abridgment.  Synonymous  terms,  examples,  brief  notes, 
dates,  and  various  catch-words  are  often  added  to  the  sim- 
ple heads  for  convenience  of  users,  who  thus  get  a  fuller 
and  clearer  idea  of  the  field  which  each  number  covers. 
Therefore  all  references  to  numbers  should  be  lookt  up  in 
the  tables;  never  in  the  summaries,  which  are  really  only  a 
table  of  contents  of  the  complete  tables. 


Choice  of  heads.     Sequence.     Coordination  5 

Choice  and  arrangement  of  heads.  The  selection  and  arrange- 
ment of  heads  can  not  be  explaind  in  detail  for  want  of  space.  In  all  the 
work,  philosofic  theory  and  accuracy  have  been  made  to  yield  to  practical 
usefulness.  The  impossibility  of  making  a  satisfactory  classification  of  all 
knowledge  as  preservd  in  books,  has  been  appreciated  from  the  first,  and 
theoretic  harmony  and  exactness  have  been  repeatedly  sacrificed  to  practi- 
cal requirements. 

Sequence  of  allied  subjects.  Wherever  practicable,  heads  have  been 
so  arranged  that  each  subject  is  preceded  and  followd  by  the  most  nearly 
allied  subjects,  and  thus  added  convenience  is  secured  both  in  catalogs 
and  on  shelves;  e.  g.  Building  (690)  follows  Mechanic  trades  (6S0)  at 
the  end  of  Useful  arts,  and  Architecture  follows  near  the  beginning  of  Fine 
arts. 

The  student  of  Biology  (570)  finds  fossil  life  or  Paleontology  (560)  before, 
and  vegetable  life  or  Botany  (580)  after,  this  followd  in  turn  by  animal  life 
or  Zoology  (590),  ending  with  Mammals  (599);  while  Useful  arts  (600) 
begin  with  human  Anatomy  (611)  under  Medicin,  thus  giving  a  regular 
progression  from  the  fossil  plant  thru  the  vegetable  and  animal  kingdoms 
to  the  living  man. 

Coordination.  Theoretically,  the  division  of  every  subject  into  just 
10  heads  is  absurd.  Practically,  it  is  desirable  that  classification  be  as 
minute  as  possible,  without  use  of  added  figures;  and  the  decimal  principle, 
on  which  our  scheme  hinges,  allows  10  divisions  as  readily  as  less. 

This  principle  has  proved  wholly  satisfactory  in  practice,  tho  apparently 
destroying  proper  coordination  in  some  places.  In  the  full  classification 
this  difficulty  is  entirely  obviated  by  the  use  of  another  figure,  giving  nine 
sub-sections  to  any  subject  of  sufficient  importance  to  warrant  closer  sub- 
division. In  history,  where  classification  is  made  chiefly  by  countries,  a 
single  figure  is  added,  as  in  the  other  classes,  to  give  a  tenfold  geografic 
division.  Wherever  naught  followd  by  another  figure  is  added,  it  in- 
dicates a  division  into  periods. 

As  all  history  is  by  countries,  and  as  close  geografic  subdivisions  are 
needed  for  local  history  and  various  other  uses,  the  rule  is  whenever  the 
same  number  is  subdivided  both  geografically  and  by  periods,  to  insert 
naught  before  the  time  or  period  figure;  the  o  showing  a  change  from 
geografic  to  period  division,  e.  g.  942.05  England  in  time  of  the  Tudors. 

As  in  every  scheme,  many  minor  subjects  are  under  general  heads  to 
which  they  do  not  strictly  belong.  In  some  cases,  these  heads  are  printed 
in  a  distinctiv  type ;  e.  g.  429  Anglo-Saxon,  under  English  philology. 
The  rule  has  been  to  assign  these  subjects  to  the  most  nearly  allied  heads, 
or  where  it  was  thought  they  would  be  most  useful. 

Catch-titles.  In  naming  heads,  strict  accuracy  has  often  been  sacri- 
ficed to  brevity,  for  short  familiar  titles  seemd  more  important  than  that 
the  heads  given  should  express  with  fulness  and  exactness  the  character 
of  all  books  catalogd  under  them. 


6  Abridged  Decimal  Classification 

Form  distinctions.  The  classification  is  mainly  by  subject 
or  content  regardless  of  form ;  but  a  form  distinction  for 
general  treatises,  which  is  found  practically  useful,  is  intro- 
duced at  the  beginning  of  the  class,  where  the  first  numerals 
would  otherwise  be  unused.  These  form  distinctions  apply 
only  to  general  treatises,  which,  without  them,  would  have 
a  class  number  ending  in  two  naughts. 

Thus,  in  Science  there  are  many  compends,  dictionaries, 
essays,  periodicals,  and  societies,  treating  of  Science  in  gen- 
eral, and  so  having  o  for  the  division  figure,  but  treating  it 
under  different  forms,  and,  therefore,  divided  into  sections 
according  to  this  form :  501  for  philosofy  or  theories  of 
Science,  502  for  compends,  503  for  dictionaries.  This  treat- 
ment is  as  nearly  as  practicable  uniform  in  all  classes. 
Brewer's  Reader  s  handbook  is  803,  the  first  figure  being 
8  because  the  book  is  clearly  on  literature ;  the  second 
figure  o,  because  limited  to  no  division  of  class  8 ;  and  the 
third  figure  3,  because  the  book  is  a  dictionary. 

Mnemonics.  Arrangement  of  heads  has  been  sometimes 
modified  to  secure  mnemonic  aid  in  numbering  and  finding 
books  without  the  index ;  thus  China  has  always  the  num- 
ber 1.  In  Ancient  history,  it  has  the  first  section,  931  ;  in 
Modern  history,  under  Asia,  it  has  951.  Similarly  the 
Indian  number  is  4 ;  Egyptian,  2  ;  English,  2  ;  German,  3  ; 
French,  4;  Italian,  5  ;  Spanish  6  ;  European,  4;  Asian,  5  ; 
African,  6  ;  North  American,  7  ;  South  American,  8  ;  and 
so  for  all  divisions  by  languages  or  countries.  Italian  5,  for 
instance,  is  in  035,  055,  065,  450,  850,  945,  and  many  others. 
This  mnemonic  principle  is  specially  prominent  in  Philology 
and  Literature,  and  their  divisions,  and  m  form  distinctions 
used  in  the  first  nine  sections  of  each  class.  Philosofy, 
methods,  or  theory  occurring  as  a  head  is  always  1  ;  diction- 
aries and  cyclopedias,  3  ;  essays,  4  ;  periodicals,  5  ;  associa- 
tions, institutions,  and  societies,  6  ;  education,  7  ;  polygrafy 
or  collections,  8 ;  history,  9.  In  numerous  cases  several 
minor  heads  are  groupt  together  as  Other,  always  num- 
berd  9. 


Relativ  subject  index  7 

While  Italian  is  always  5,  5  is  by  no  means  always  Italian.  Grammar  is 
5,  Periodicals  are  5,  Asia  is  5,  Oratory  is  5,  etc.  Even  were  it  possible,  to 
limit  5  to  Italian  would  waste  numbering  material,  and  results  would  not 
justify  cost.  The  purpose  is  to  give  practical  aid,  not  to  follow  a  fanciful 
theory.  A  cataloger  marking  a  German  grammar,  remembers  that  all 
Philology  begins  with  4,  and,  as  German  is  always  3  and  grammar  5,  he 
knows  the  number  must  be  435.  Italian  (5),  poetry  (1),  is  as  plainly  851 
with  no  danger  of  being  mistaken  for  "  poetry  of  grammar  "  or  "  theory  of 
Asia,"  because  the  numbers  also  have  that  meaning.  This  feature  is  an 
aid,  not  the  regular  method,  and  in  all  doubtful  cases  one  refers  at  once  to 
index  or  tables.  Suggested  difficulties  are  usually  creations  of  ingenious 
theorists  and  not  an  outgrowth  of  practical  experience  in  using  this  plan. 

Wherever  practicable,  this  mnemonic  principle  is  used  in  subdividing  sec- 
tions. 558,  Geology  of  South  America,  is  subdivided  by  adding  the  sections  of 
980,  History  of  South  America.  Geology  of  Brazil  then  must  be  558.1  : 
mnemonicly  the  first  5  means  Science;  the  second  5,  Geology;  8,  South 
America;  1,  Brazil.  Any  library  attendant  or  regular  user  of  the  scheme 
recognizes  558. 1  at  a  glance  as  Geology  of  Brazil.  This  mnemonic  feature  is 
of  great  practical  utility  in  numbering  and  finding  books  without  catalog  or 
index,  and  in  determining  the  character  of  any  book  simply  from  its  call 
number.  The  advantage  of  mnemonic  correspondence  has  however  never 
outweighd  any  claim  of  greater  usefulness.  In  many  cases  choice  between 
numbers  was  hardly  perceptible;  e.  g.  whether  in  Philology  the  order  should 
be  French,  Spanish,  Italian,  or  French,  Italian,  Spanish.  In  such  cases, 
preference  was  given  to  mnemonic  numbers,  and  20  years'  experience  has 
now  proved  this  wisest. 

Relativ  subject  index.  Following  the  tables  is  the  most 
important  feature  of  the  system,  an  alfabetic  index  of  all 
the  heads,  which  refers  by  class  number  to  the  exact  place  of 
each  in  the  preceding  tables. 

The  index  might  be  made  on  any  of  the  various  dictionary  plans.  The 
simplest  was  however  chosen.  Only  short  heads  are  given  with  a  brief 
indication  in  doubtful  cases  of  the  point  of  view  taken  in  assigning  the  class 
number. 

This  index  is  designd  to  guide  both  in  numbering  and  in  finding  books. 
In  assigning  numbers,  the  most  specific  head  that  will  contain  the  book 
having  been  determind,  reference  to  that  head  in  the  Index  gives  the  class 
number  which  should  be  assignd.  Conversely,  in  finding  books  on  any 
given  subject,  reference  to  the  Index  gives  the  number  under  which  they 
are  to  be  sought  on  the  shelves,  in  the  shelf  list,  or  in  the  subject  catalog. 
Whenever  a  subject  not  in  this  index  comes  up,  it  should  be  lookt  up  in  the 
full  index  so  that  the  classification  may  be  uniform  with  that  of  other  users. 

The  index  aims  to  give  similar  or  synonymous  words,  and  the  same 
words   in  different  connections,  so  that  any  person  of  intelligence   will 


8  Abridged  Decimal  Classification 

hardly  fail  to  get  the  right  number.  A  reader  wishing  to  know  something 
of  the  tariff  looks  under  T,  and,  at  a  glance,  finds  337  as  its  class-number. 
This  guides  him  to  the  shelves,  to  all  the  books  and  pamflets,  to  the  shelf 
list,  to  the  subject  catalog  on  cards,  to  the  index  of  books  charged  at  the 
loan  desk,  and,  in  short,  in  simple  numeric  order,  thruout  the  whole  library 
to  anything  bearing  on  the  subject.  If  he  turns  to  the  tables,  he  will  see 
that  it  means  class  3,  Sociology;  division  3,  Political  economy;  section  7, 
Protection  and  free  trade;  but  the  number  alone  is  enough  to  classify  the 
book  or  to  find  it,  for  either  cataloger  or  reader.  If  he  had  lookt  under 
P  for  protection,  or  F  for  free  trade,  or  D  for  duties,  or  C  for  customs,  or 
under  any  other  leading  word  relating  to  his  subject,  he  would  still  have 
been  referd  to  337. 

Had  he  lookt  for  "  railroad  "  he  would  have  found  after  it  13  separate 
entries,  each  preceded  by  a  catchword  indicating  the  phase  of  the  subject 
in  the  scheme.  A  book  on  railroads  may  be  a  treatise  on  the  desirability 
of  government  ownership,  control,  etc.,  and  then  is  clearly  a  question  of 
social  science;  or  it  may  be  a  practical  handbook  for  an  employee  explain- 
ing business  methods  of  railroading,  running  trains,  handling  freight,  etc., 
when  it  is  as  clearly  one  of  the  useful  arts.  The  cataloger  knows  to  which 
of  these  heads  his  book  belongs,  and  the  reader  knows  which  phase  of  the 
subject  he  wishes  to  examin.  Moreover,  the  3  and  6  beginning  the  numbers 
indicate  clearly  the  character  of  each  class.  But  even  if  the  significance 
of  these  figures  were  entirely  disregarded,  no  confusion  would  result;  for, 
on  consulting  either  of  the  numbers  in  the  catalog,  in  the  tables  or  on  the 
shelves,  the  difference  would  be  clearly  seen. 

What  the  relativ  index  includes.  This  index  includes  also, 
as  far  as  found,  all  synonyms  or  alternativ  names  for  the 
heads,  and  many  other  entries  that  seemd  likely  to  help  a 
reader  find  his  subject  readily.  Tho  the  user  knows  just 
where  to  turn  to  his  subject  in  the  tables,  if  he  consults  the 
index  he  may  be  sent  also  to  other  allied  subjects;  where  he 
will  find  valuable  matter  which  he  would  otherwise  overlook. 
Most  names  of  countries,  towns,  animals,  plants,  etc.  have 
been  omitted,  the  Index  containing  only  those  which  are  in 
the  tables;  e.  g.  it  can  not  enumerate  all  the  species  of  trilo- 
bites,  but  when  the  classifier  has  found  from  the  proper  re- 
ference books  that  Remopleurides  is  a  trilobite,  the  index 
will  send  him  to  565  and  he  can  classify  his  monograf  on 
that  subject. 

Relativ  location.  Economy  and  simplicity  calld  not  only 
for  the  subject  index,  but  also  for  some  plan  of  consolida- 
ting the  two  sets  of  marks  heretofore  used  ;  the  one  telling 


Relativ  location  9 

of  what  subject  a  book  treats,  the  other  where  the  book  was 
shelvd.  By  relativ  location  and  decimal  class  numbers,  the 
simple  arabic  numbers  have  been  made  to  tell  of  each  book 
and  pamflet,  both  what  it  is,  and  where  it  is. 

In  arranging  books  on  the  shelves,  absolute  location  by- 
shelf  and  book  number  is  wholly  abandond,  relativ  location 
by  class  and  book  number  being  one  of  the  most  valuable 
features  of  the  plan.1  In  finding  books,  the  class  and  book 
numbers  on  the  backs  are  followd,  the  upper  being  the 
class  and  the  lower  the  book  number.  {See  p.  17,  Book 
numbers.)  The  class  is  found  in  its  numeric  order  among 
the  classes,  just  as  the  shelf  is  found  in  the  ordinary  sys- 
tem. Shelves  are  not  numberd,  as  increase  of  different 
departments,  opening  of  new  rooms,  and  any  arrangement 
of  classes  to  bring  books  most  circulated  nearest  the  de- 
livery desk,  will  at  different  times  bring  different  class 
numbers  on  any  given  shelf.  New  books,  as  receivd,  are 
numberd  and  put  in  place,  in  the  same  way  that  new  titles 
are  added  to  the  card  catalog. 

Not  only  do  all  the  books  on  any  given  subject  stand 
together,  no  additions  or  changes  ever  separating  them,  but 
the  most  nearly  allied  subjects  precede  and  follow,  they  in 
turn  being  preceded  and  followd  by  other  allied  subjects, 
as  far  as  practicable.  Readers  not  having  access  to  the 
shelves  find  short  titles  arranged  in  the  same  order  in  the 
shelf  list,  and  full  titles,  imprints,  subject  and  cross  refer- 
ences, notes,  etc.  in  the  subject  catalog 

Parts  of  sets,  and  books  on  the  same  or  allied  subjects, 
are  never  separated  as  they  are  sure  to  be,  sooner  or  later, 
in  every  library  arranged  on  the  old  plan,  unless  the  great 
and  needless  expense  of  frequent  rearrangement  and  recata- 
loging  be  incurd.  In  this  system  both  class  and  book  num- 
bers remain  unchanged  thru  all  changes  of  shelving,  build- 
ings, or  arrangement. 

Among  hundreds  of  points  raisd  by  librarians,  as  to  its 
practical  workings  and  usefulness,  the  only  one  in  which  it  is

not  shown  to  be  equal  or  superior  to  the  old  systems  is 
that  in  this  relativ  location  a  book  which  this  year  stands, 
for  instance,  at  the  end  of  a  certain  shelf,  may  not  be 
on  that  shelf  at  all  another  year,  because  of  uneven  growth 
of  the  parts  of  the  library.  This  slight  objection,  how- 
ever, inheres  in  any  system  where  books  are  arranged  by 
subjects,  rather  than  by  shelves,  windows,  doors,  and  similar 
non-intellectual  distinctions. 

Sizes  on  shelves.  Most  libraries  have  abandond  close 
distinction  of  sizes.  It  is  true  that  this  distinction  saves  a 
little  space,  but  at  far  too  great  a  cost ;  for  every  distinction 
of  sizes  makes  a  parallel  classification.  If  books  are  groupt 
in  five  sizes,  one  must  look  in  five  places  before  he  can  be 
sure  of  having  seen  all  the  books  on  a  given  subject. 

It  is  better  to  shelve  octavos  and  all  smaller  books  together 
in  one  series,  and  arrange  in  parallel  libraries  only  quartos  and 
folios,  which  are  too  large  to  stand  on  the  regular  shelves, 
showing  the  series  in  which  any  oversize  book  is  put,  by  a 
size  letter  prefixt  to  the  book  number;  e.  g.  749  qB,  to  show 
that  book  B  on  Artistic  furniture  is  too  large  for  the  regular 
shelves,  and  so  is  placed  in  the  "q"  or  quarto  series.  Another 
way  is  too  use  a  wood  or  pasteboard  dummy,  to  show  the 
location  of  a  book  not  in  its  regular  place.  But,  however 
solvd,  there  is  no  conflict  between  the  size  problem  and  the 
Decimal  classification.  (See  also  Library  notes  no.  1 1, 
vol.  3,  p.  428-29.) 

CATALOGS 

Any  system  of  catalogs  may  be  used  with  this  scheme.  But  the  two  es- 
sentials of  even  the  simplest  system  are  the  author  (or  preferably  name) 
catalog  and  the  shelf  list.  The  chief  use  of  the  system  for  catalogs  is  for 
the  shelf  list  and  for  the  clast  catalog  on  cards. 

Name  catalog.  In  the  name  catalog  on  cards,  arranged  strictly  by 
names  of  authors  and  of  persons  or  places  written  about,  the  class  number 
holds  a  subordinate  place,  yet  is  constantly  useful.  If  printed,  it  appears 
in  a  single  colum  as  in  the  relativ  index,  and,  where  there  is  no  subject 
catalog,  one  can  rapidly  pick  out  the  books  on  any  desired  topic  by  glanc- 
ing down  the  colum  for  the  class  number  wanted. 

Shelf  list.  The  class  number  makes  the  list  the  most  useful  form  of 
brief  subject    catalog.     Each   page    gives   in    colums  accession   number,

author's  name,  and  brief  title  of  every  book  in  the  library  on  the  specific 
•  subject  bearing  that  class  number. 

Subject  catalog.  In  the  card  catalog  of  subjects  the  classification  is 
mapt  out  above  the  cards  by  projecting  guides,  making  reference  almost 
instantaneous.  Subjects  are  arranged  in  the  i,  2,  3  order  of  their  decimal 
subject  numbers  exactly  as  in  the  classification  tables,  and  the  cards  of 
each  subject  are  then  further  arranged  alfabetically  by  authors. 

The  printed  subject  catalog  on  this  plan  is  also  the  most  compact 
and  satisfactory  in  use.  Under  each  class  number  are  given  the 
resources  of  the  library  on  that  subject,  the  heading  giving  for  conven- 
ience the  name  as  well  as  the  number  of  the  subject ;  e.  g.  u  513  Geom- 
etry." General  notes  are  printed  in  finer  type  under  general  heads,  and 
an  index  at  the  end  shows  where  to  open  the  book  to  find  any  topic.  As 
class  numbers  are  put  in  place  of  page  numbers,  this  index  serves  for  any 
catalog,  list  or  library  arranged  on  this  plan. 

Dictionary  catalog.  A  dictionary  card  catalog  may  be  as  readily 
used  with  this  system  as  with  any  other,  but  its  advantages  are  largely 
supplied  by  the  subject  index,  which  is  in  itself  a  skeleton  dictionary  cata- 
log. If  however  the  subject  card  catalog  is  clast,  the  alfabetic  index  refer- 
ring to  class  numbers  makes  the  single  set  of  cards  serve  both  as  clast  and 
dictionary  catalog.  Instead  of  giving  the  book  titles  under  each  head,  the 
index  number  refers  to  all  those  titles  simply  and  directly. 

The  advantages  of  the  dictionary  and  clast  catalogs  are  therefore  united, 
not  by  mingling  them  together,  and  so  losing  much  of  the  simplicity  of 
one  and  as  much  of  the  excellence  of  the  other,  but  by  really  using  both, 
each  with  its  own  merits. 


SUGGESTIONS  TO  USERS 

In  referring  to  tables,  hold  the  book  in  the  right  hand 
and  turn  with  the  left.  The  class  numbers  then  show  very 
plainly  on  the  left  margin  and  reference  is  greatly  expe- 
dited. Some  prefer  to  hold  the  book  in  the  left  hand,  but 
in  any  case  the  eye  should  follow  the  left  margins  wholly. 

Numeration.  In  thinking  or  speaking  of  the  class  num- 
bers, to  avoid  confusion  always  divide  at  the  decimal  point, 
and  name  it ;  e.  g.  read  942.9,  "nine  forty-two,  point  nine," 
never  "  ninety-four  twenty-nine."  If  "point"  were  omitted 
the  ear  might  readily  interpret  270.2  as  272,  while  "two 
seventy,  point  two"  can  never  be  misunderstood. 

Number  of  figures  used  in  class  number.  In  very  small  col- 
lections  two   figures   might   do  till  growth  required  further

division ;  but  it  is  economy,  and  saves  handling  the  books  a 
second  time  to  use  at  least  three  figures  at  first,  even  in  the* 
smallest  collection. 

Whether  there  are  one  or  1,000  books  on  any  topic,  they  take  no  more 
space  on  the  shelves  if  clast  minutely,  and  the  work  is  done  once  ior 
all.  When  large  accessions  come,  even  if  a  century  later,  this  number 
will  not  have  to  be  alterd.  A  library  having  only  20  books  on  economics 
should  use  the  full  scheme,  for  the  whole  20  would  go  on  a  single  shelf, 
and  take  no  more  room,  and  the  index  would  refer  more  accurately  to 
what  was  wanted.  The  number  of  books  you  have  on  any  subject  has  in 
this  system  no  special  weight.  In  a  relativ  location,  any  number  of  con- 
secutiv  topics  without  a  book  yet  in  them,  waste  no  space  on  shelves  or  in 
catalogs;  the  numbers  are  merely  skipt.  This  plan  not  only  does  no 
harm,  but  has  the  considerable  negativ  value  that  looking  for  the  number 
and  finding  it  blank  or  skipt,  shows  that  you  have  nothing  on  the  subject, 
—  a  piece  of  information  second  in  value  only  to  finding  something,  for 
one  need  no  longer  search. 

The  practical  objection  to  close  classing  is  that  it  gives  a  longer  number 
to  charge  in  a  lending  library.  In  a  reference  library  full  sub-sections 
should  be  used.  Where  a  short  number  is  imperativ,  it  is  well  to  give  the 
full  class  number  on  another  part  of  the  book  plate,  not  to  be  used  in  charg- 
ing, but  as  a  guide  to  the  contents  of  the  book.  Thus  when  a  classifier  has 
once  examind  a  book,  and  found  out  just  what  it  is  about,  the  record  is 
preservd  for  the  benefit  of  others. 

Familiarity  with  tables.  Get  a  general  knowledge  of  the 
scheme  by  learning  the  10  main  classes  (you  will  soon  know 
the  100  divisions  also  without  special  study),  so  that  you 
can  tell  to  what  subject  a  given  number  belongs  from  its 
first  figure  without  referring  to  the  tables.  Specific  knowl- 
edge of  subdivisions  will  come  gradually,  but  rapidly,  from 
use.  Using  the  tables  alone,  and  then  always  verifying 
your  result  by  the  index,  you  will  more  rapidly  acquire 
knowledge  of  the  classification  and  facility  in  its  use.  To 
do  this  decide  first  to  which  of  the  10  classes  the  subject 
belongs  ;  next,  take  that  class  as  if  there  were  no  other, 
and  decide  to  which  of  its  10  divisions  the  subject  belongs; 
then,  in  the  same  way,  select  section  and  sub-section,  thus 
running  down  your  topic  in  its  grooves,  which  become  ten- 
fold narrower  at  each  step. 


Suggestions  to  users  13 

Use  of  index.  As  a  check  against  error,  use  the  index 
freely  even  tho.  familiar  with  the  scheme. 

By  consulting  the  index  of  the  complete  classification,  subjects  omitted 
in  this  abridgment  will  be  found  assignd  with  allied  subjects  to  the  proper 
head.  Reference  to  this  full  subject  index  will  decide  at  once  most 
doubtful  points,  and  no  topics  omitted  from  the  abridged  tables  and  index 
should  be  numberd  without  such  reference,  as  otherwise  great  annoyance 
may  result  from  finding  that  the  number  used  conflicts  with  that  on  the 
great  mass  of  printed  and  ms  catalogs,  cards,  indexes  and  other  biblio- 
grafic  aids  arranged  by  this  system. 

Subject  of  a  book.  To  determin  the  subject  of  a  book 
consult :  — 

1  The  title,  since  it  is  generally  chosen  to  show  what  the 
book  is  about.  But,  as  many  titles  are  misleading,  never 
class  from  title  alone,  but  always  examin  also 

2  Table  of  contents,  which  is  the  best  guide  to  the  true 
subject.     If  there  is  no  table  of  contents  read 

3  Headings  of  chapters,  or  marginal  topics. 

4  Preface.  Unless  already  certain,  glance  thru  this  to 
catch  the  author's  point  of  view,  and  verify  impressions 
gaind  from  title  and  contents. 

5  Reference  books.  If  preceding  means  fail,  consult  reli- 
able bibliografies,  clast  and  annotated  catalogs,  biografic 
dictionaries,  histories  of  literature,  cyclopedias,  reviews, 
etc.,  for  information  about  the  character  of  the  book. 

6  Subject-matter.  If  the  five  shorter  methods  above 
fail,  examin  the  subject  matter  of  the  book  itself,  and  if 
still  in  doubt,  to  avoid  mistakes,  put  aside  011  an  "  under 
consideration  "  shelf  till  you  can  examin  more  thuroly  or 
consult 

7  Specialists.  Experts,  competent  to  define  their  true 
subject  and  relation,  are  usually  glad  to  examin  any  new 
books  in  their  departments  enough  to  class  them.  Old 
ones  they  know  where  to  put  already. 

After  deciding  what  the  book  is  about,  find  this  subject 
in  the  tables,  either  thru  the  index  or  by  using  the  tables 
directly,  which  for  the  beginner  is  a  longer  process,  seldom 
to  be  trusted  without  subsequent  reference  to  the  index  ; 
e.  g.   Pollock's  Land  laws  might  naturally  be  clast  from  the 


14  Abridged  Decimal  Classification 

tables  alone  as  "  333,  Land  ;  ownership  ;  rights ;  rent,"  which 
seems  exactly  to  fit  this  book.  The  index,  however,  shows 
two  numbers,  both  referring  to  land  laws,  but  from  dif- 
ferent points  of  view  ;  viz,  347,  legal,  and  333,  economic. 
The  object  of  this  book,  as  seen  in  the  preface,  is  to  give  a 
popular  presentation  of  English  statutes  pertaining  to  land- 
holding,  not  to  discuss  the  history  and  theory  of  land  laws 
from  the  economist's  point  of  view ;  and  it  should  be  clast 
"347,  Realty,"  which  might  have  been  missed  but  for  the 
index. 

Assigning  class  numbers.  1  Practical  usefulness  is  the 
chief  thing.  Put  each  book  under  the  subject  to  the 
student  of  which  it  is  most  useful,  unless  local  reasons 
"attract"  it  to  a  place  still  more  useful  in  your  library. 
See  p.  1 6,  §  7. 

2  The  content  or  the  real  subject  of  which  a  book  treats, 
and  not  the  form  or  the  accidental  wording  of  the  title,  de- 
termins  its  place.  Following  this  rule,  put  a  philosofy 
of  art  with  Art,  not  with  Philosofy ;  a  history  of  mathe- 
matics with  Mathematics,  not  with  History;  for  philosofy 
or  history  is  simply  the  form  which  these  books  have  taken. 
Their  true  content  or  subject  is  Art  or  Mathematics,  and  to 
the  student  of  these  subjects  they  are  most  useful. 

3  Always  remember  that  the  question  is  not  where  one 
would  probably  look  to  find  a  particular  book,  but  under 
what  subject  is  the  book  of  greatest  value  ;  e.  g.  it  is  of  little 
consequence  whether  "  one  would  be  apt  to  look  "  under  595 
for  Darwin's  Formation  of  vegetable  mould,  but  of  much  conse- 
quence that  one  studying  earthworms  should  find  that  book 
in  "595  Worms,"  since  it  is  chiefly  valuable  as  a  study  of  the 
habits  of  earthworms.  Any  one  wanting  that  special  book 
should  look  for  it  in  the  name  catalog  under  Darwin. 

4  Assign  every  book  to  the  most  specific  head  that  will 
contain  it.  This  will  vary  in  different  libraries  according  to 
the  number  of  figures  used,  e.  g.  the  specific  head  for  "  com- 
pulsory vaccination"  in  the  full  tables  is  614.4738 ;  but  in  a 
library  using  only  three  figures,  the  most  specific  number 
possible  is  614,  which  includes  everything  on  public  health.

If  there  are  only  10  books  on  a  given  subject  it  is  useful  to  have  them 
still  farther  groupt  by  topics  or  form  of  treatment,  for  otherwise,  they 
have  only  accidental  order  which  is  of  service  to  no  one.  If  a  reader 
wishes  a  specific  subject,  he  is  sent  instantly  to  the  exact  place  by  the 
subject  index ;  if,  however,  he  wishes  a  specific  book,  he  should  go,  not 
to  the  shelves,  but  to  the  name  catalog,  where  he  can  find  its  place 
quickest.  If  he  wishes  to  study  the  library's  resources  at  the  shelves,  he 
will  be  greatly  helpt  by  close  classing. 

A  library  recently  adopted  the  plan  of  putting  all  books  of  a  division 
together,  if  they  had  but  few  ;  e.  g.  all  mathematical  works  were  markt 
5ro.  It  took  just  as  many  figures,  cost  just  as  much  labor  in  most  cases, 
and,  if  a  man  wanted  the  one  calculus  in  the  whole  library,  he  had  to 
search  through  the  150  volumes  in  510,  when  otherwise  he  would  instantly 
have  found  it  standing  alone  as  517. 

A  teacher  showing  his  pupils  the  material  on  any  subject,  if  there  are  only 
20  books,  would  surely  put  together  those  covering  the  same  points,  even  if 
there  were  but  two.  Much  more  should  librarians  group  closely  their 
greater  collections,  that  readers  may  gain  something  of  the  advantages  of 
an  experienced  guide. 

This  gives  every  specialist  his  own  distinct  library.  If  a  student  of 
science  in  general,  he  is  sent  to  class  5  ;  if  his  department  be  zoology,  his 
library  is  59 ;  if  his  specialty  is  shells,  he  finds  all  works  and  references  on 
that  subject  in  library  594.  Whether  a  specialist  needs  it  or  not,  every 
subject  being  a  library  by  itself  shows  resources  and  wants  as  no  catalog 
can  show  them.  A  catalog  can  not  be  made  to  take  satisfactorily  the  place 
of  handling  books  themselves.  This  advantage  weighs  most  in  a  college 
or  society  library,  where  many  go  to  the  shelves ;  but  even  if  librarians  only 
are  admitted,  close  classification  is  worth  its  cost  in  the  added  power  it  gives. 

5  The  predominant  tendency  or  obvious  purpose  of  a 
book  usually  decides  its  class  number  at  once.  Still  a  book 
often  treats  of  two  or  more  different  subjects.  In  such 
cases  assign  it  to  the  place  where  it  will  be  most  useful,  and 
make  references  under  all  subordinate  subjects.  Give  these 
reference  numbers  both  on  book  plate  and  subject  card,  as 
well  as  on  reference  cards. 

It  is  one  of  the  markt  advantages  of  the  plan  that  these  references, 
notes,  etc.,  may  be  added  from  time  to  time  as  found  convenient.  It  is 
necessary  at  first  to  find  only  the  predominating  tendency  of  the  book  in 
order  to  classify  it.    Subject  references  are  added  whenever  found  necessary. 

Add  these  numbers  indicating  more  closely  the  character  of  the  book 
as  rapidly  as  possible,  and  invite  all  specialists  to  call  the  librarian's 
attention  to  every  desirable  subject  reference  noticed  in  their  reading. 
These  numbers  take  little  room,  are  easily  added,  and  in  most  cases  are 
very  valuable. 


j6  Abridged  Decimal  Classification 

6  If  two  subjects  have  distinct  page  limitations,  class 
under  the  first,  and  make  analytic  reference  under  the 
second.  But  if  the  second  is  decidedly  more  important  or 
much  greater  in  bulk,  class  under  that,  with  reference  under 
the  first.  Always  put  a  bobk  under  the  first  subject,  unless 
there  is  good  reason  for  entering  it  under  another. 

7  Consider  not  only  the  scope  and  tendency  of  each 
book,  but  also  the  nature  and  specialties  of  each  library. 

Any  subject  of  which  a  library  makes  a  specialty  naturally 
"attracts"  allied  subjects.  This  influence  is  strongest  in 
minute  classification.  To  admit  this  variation,  many  sub- 
jects in  the  present  scheme  have  two  or  more  places,  ac- 
cording to  these  different  sides  ;  e.  g.  a  book  on  school 
hygiene,  which  a  medical  library  puts  under  613,  has  also  a 
place  in  371,  where  the  educational  specialist  requires  it. 

8  If  a  book  treats  of  a  majority  of  the  sections  of  any 
division,  give  it  the  division  number,  instead  of  the  most 
important  section  number  with  subject  references.  Unless 
some  one  section  is  so  prominently  treated  as  to  warrant 
placing  the  book  in  it,  class  a  book  on  four  or  more  sections 
under  the  division  number;  e.  g.  class  a  volume  on  light, 
heat,  and  sound,  under  the  head  most  fully  discust,  and  refer 
to  it  from  the  others;  but  if  it  treats  also  of  mechanics,  class  as 
530,  or  general  physics,  tho  no  mention  be  made  of  hydrosta- 
tics, pneumatics,  electricity,  magnetism,  or  molecular  physics. 

9  To  secure  uniformity,  make  notes  for  future  reference 
of  all  difficulties  and  decisions ;  for  it  is  even  more  import- 
ant to  put  books  on  the  same  subject  together  than  to  put 
them  in  the  absolutely  correct  place.  These  notes  should  be 
written  either  on  the  broad  margins  of  the  classification  tables, 
or  on  an  interleavd  copy,  or  on  standard-size  slips  arranged 
by  class  numbers,  like  the  clast  catalog.  (See  also  p.  23, 
Index  re  rums.) 

10  Keep  collected  works,  libraries,  etc.  together,  and 
assign  them  like  individual  books  to  the  most  specific  head 
that  will  contain  them  ;  or  assign  to  the  most  prominent 
of  the  various  subjects  on  which  they  treat,  with  subject 
references  from  the  others';  or  separate  and  class  the  parts 
as  independent  works. 


Book  numbers  17 

This  last  practice  constantly  grows  in  favor,  and  many 
librarians  now  largely  disregard  uniform  bindings  and 
"series"  lettering,  and,  unless  contents  of  volumes  are  so 
connected  that  they  can  not  be  separated,  class  each  under 
the  most  specific  head  that  will  contain  it. 

1 1  Class  translations,  reviews,  keys,  analyses,  answers, 
and  other  books  about  specific  books  with  the  original  book, 
as  being  there  most  useful. 

Book  numbers.  With  this  abridged  classification  the  fol- 
lowing rough  alfabetic  arrangement  of  books  in  each  class 
by  author's  surnames  is  recommended  : 

Keep  together  names  beginning  with  the  same  letter  by 
marking  books  by  the  first  author  under  any  letter  with  the 
initial  of  the  author's  surname  ;  books  by  the  second  author 
under  that  letter  with  the  author's  initial  followd  by  1. 
Use  the  same  initial  and  figure  for  all  books  by  the  same 
author  in  any  one  class,  and  distinguish  different  books  by 
adding  lower-case  letters.  E.  g.  if  in  class  942,  History  of 
England,  the  first  books  under  G  were  Green's  History 
of  the  English  people,  Gardiner's  Outline  of  English  history, 
Guizot's  History  of  England  and  Green's  Short  history  of 
the  English  people,  and  were  receivd  in  the  order  named, 
the  book  number  of  Green's  History  would  be  G,  Gardi- 
ner's Outline  would  be  Gi,  Guizot's  History  G2,  and  of 
Green's  Short  history  Ga. 

In  order  to  keep  lives  of  the  same  person  together  book 
numbers  in  individual  biografy  should  be  assignd  from  the 
name  of  the  person  written  about  instead  of  from  name  of 
writer.  These  biografies  are  markt  B  and  arranged  in  a 
single  alfabetic  series. 

For  fiction,  omit  the  class  number  altogether  and  alfa- 
bet  by  authors'  surnames.  Both  fiction  and  biografy  should 
be  numberd  by  the  author  table  devised  by  C:  A.  Cutter, 
and  different  books  by  the  same  author  distinguisht  by 
adding  a,  b,  c,  etc.  to  the  Cutter  number.

i8  Abridged  Decimal  Classification 

VARIATIONS     PRACTICABLE     IN     ADJUSTING    TO 
SPECIAL  LOCAL  REQUIREMENTS 

Some  users  assume  that  adoption  of  the  Decimal  classification  and  rela- 
tiv  index  carries  with  it  other  parts  of  the  general  system  which  the  author  has 
used  at  Amherst,  Wellesley,  or  Columbia  colleges  or  in  the  New  York 
state  library.  In  fact,  the  plan  in  each  of  these  libraries  differs  some- 
what from  all  the  others,  and  many  of  the  more  than  300  libraries  now 
using  this  system  have  adopted  still  other  variations  ;  for  the  special  constitu- 
ency, circumstances,  and  resources  of  each  library  must  be  considerd  in 
deciding  what  is  best  for  it.  This  decision  should  be  made  by  one 
familiar,  not  only  with  the  library  and  its  needs,  but  also  with  all  methods 
of  any  merit  and  the  comparativ  ease  and  cost  of  introducing  them  into 
any  given  library. 

Cautions.  Having  decided  to  adopt  the  system  in  its  decimal  form  as 
workt  out  and  printed,  it  must  be  determind  whether  to  adopt  certain 
variations,  noted  in  1-4  below  as  practicable,  and  in  some  cases  useful 
and  desirable.  The  inexperienced  user  is  very  likely  to  feel  entirely  com- 
petent, after  once  reading  the  tables  (in  fact,  without  reading  more  than  a 
single  page  regardless  of  its  bearings  on  hundreds  of  other  places,  and  with- 
out so  much  as  looking  at  the  author's  explanations),  to  institute  a 
series  of  "  improvements."  Experience  proves  that  nothing  could  be  more 
disastrous.  It  seems  a  simple  matter  to  put  a  topic  a  line  higher  or  lower, 
but  in  some  cases  this  may  affect  over  100  different  entries  in  the  index, 
and  there  is  no  possible  way  to  be  sure  of  correcting  them  except  by  ex- 
amining each  of  thousands  of  heads.  Any  changes  except  as  authorized 
under  the  next  heads,  would  conflict  with  the  full  tables,  so  that  closer 
classification,  if  required  later  by  the  growth  of  the  library,  could  be 
made  only  by  changing  whole  numbers  instead  of  by  simply  adding  extra 
figures.  Care  has  been  taken  that  no  number  in  this  short  form  should 
vary  from  that  in  the  full  tables  ;  e.  g.  instead  of  printing  as  the  number 
for  Ireland  only  941.5,  the  numbers  941. 6-9  are  given  for  the  different 
groups  of  counties,  just  as  in  the  full  tables.  If  the  numbers  for  these 
counties  were  designated  by  adding  figures  to  941.5,  the  closer  classifica- 
tion would  be  omitted  in  this  edition,  for  small  libraries  are  not  likely  to 
have  enough  on  Ireland  to  make  subdivision  necessary.  But  if  the  books 
on  the  various  Irish  counties  were  all  numberd  941.5  the  number  would 
disagree  with  those  on  all  printed  catalog  cards  and  cooperativ  lists  and, 
if  the  change  to  full  class  numbers  should  ever  be  made,  the  last  figure  on 
every  book  and  on  every  record  of  that  book  would  have  to  be  alterd, 
while  nothing  would  have  been  gaind  originally  in  brevity. 

Frequently  proposed  changes,  carefully  studied  out  and  submitted  as 
improvements,  are  shown  by  our  old  records  to  have  been  adopted  and 
used  in  the  exact  form  proposed,  till  considerations  which  had  not  been 
foreseen  forced  us  to  change  to  the  form  as  printed.     Even  after  years  of 


Variations  19 

experience  one  is  not  safe  in  pronouncing  on  an  apparent  improvement 
without  consulting  the  voluminous  records  of  previous  experiments.  Even 
those  who  have  used  the  system  longest  have  sometimes  been  misled  into 
adopting  changes  which  on  trial  they  were  compeld  to  reject,  going  back 
to  the  original  form  at  the  cost  and  confusion  of  two  changes. 

The  user  who  adopts  the  printed  form  avoids  the  criticism  sure  to  be 
aimd  at  any  possible  scheme.  The  moment  he  makes  one  ''improve- 
ment" he  must  defend  all  the  heads  or  alter  them  to  suit  each  critic. 
Much  time  is  saved  by  saying  that  the  scheme  is  used  as  printed,  and 
blunders  are  the  author's,  not  the  user's.  The  cooperation  of  those  inter- 
ested is  invited  in  eliminating  any  errors  found  either  in  tables  or  index. 

The  following  brief  notes  show  the  most  important  variations  found 
practicable  in  the  "  relativ  index  system,"  oftener  called  the  "Decimal  or 
Dewey  system." 

I  Letter  notations  for  changes.  To  protect  other  users  from  con- 
fusion, the  publishers  insist,  as  the  copyright  entitles  them  to,  that  these 
numbers  shall  not  be  printed  with  changed  meanings  without  some  clear 
indication  of  the  fact  in  the  number  itself.  If  the  reasons  that  led  us  to 
adopt  the  form  printed  are  not  conclusiv  to  another,  we  wish  to  remove 
any  obstacles  to  his  use  of  the  system  with  such  changes  as  shall  satisfy 
him.  This  can  be  readily  done  by  using  a  letter,  or  some  other  character 
than  the  10  digits,  to  mark  changes,  e.  g.,  if  you  wish  a  different  set  of 
subdivisions  under  630,  make  it  out  to  suit,  and  number  it  63a,  63b,  63c, 
etc.  It  will  arrange  in  its  exact  place  and  exact  order  without  difficulty, 
and  no  other  user  of  the  system  will  be  confused  by  the  numbers.  In  the 
index,  cancel  the  1,  2,  3,  etc.,  you  have  discarded,  and  write  in  the  a,  b,  c, 
etc..  adopted.  Whenever  you  use  our  exact  numbers,  use  also 
our  meanings  for  them  exactly  as  indext.  If  you  wish  to  change  a 
head  from  one  place  to  another,  cancel  it  where  it  stands,  and  leave  that 
number  blank  in  the  tables.  Then  insert  the  head  in  its  new  place  by 
the  use  of  a  letter  instead  of  the  figure  omitted  as  above,  as  if  it  had  never 
been  in  the  tables. 

This  plan  of  introducing  letters  or  other  symbols  wherever  each  user 
pleases,  will  give  all  needed  freedom  to  the  personal  equation  and  desire 
for  originality,  and  meets  all  real  wants  for  peculiar  classification  in  pecu- 
liar cases. 

Fiction,  and  juvenils.  In  some  cases  it  is  usually  best  to 
modify  class  numbers  by  letters  as  above.  In  popular  libra- 
ries half  the  circulation  is  often  fiction.  A  great  saving  is 
effected  here  by  omitting  the  class  number  entirely,  as 
directed  in  these  abridged  tables,  and  using  merely  the  book 
number,  it  being  understood  that  no  class  number  means 
fiction.  After  fiction,  their  great  circulation  makes  juvenils 
a  good  place  to  economize,  if  they  are  kept  separate.     The 


20  Abridged  Decimal  Classification 

books  are  clast  exactly  as  if  for  adults,  then  a  J  is  prefixt  to 
show  their  special  character.  This  gives  J  alone  as  the  class 
number  for  juvenil  fiction,  and  J942,  for  a  child's  history 
of  England.  These  are  then  arranged  in  a  parallel  library 
by  themselves,  so  that  J942  comes  between  J941,  juvenil 
history  of  Scotland,  and  J943,  juvenil   history  of  Germany. 

If  at  any  time  it  seems  desirable  to  abandon  the  separate 
J  library,  it  can  be  done  without  altering  a  number,  by  dis- 
tributing the  J  books  among  the  regular  classes,  either  ignor- 
ing the  J  entirely,  or  preferably  by  putting  all  the  J  books 
by  themselves  at  the  end  of  each  class  number. 

There  are  thus  three  methods:  1,  to  have  a  separate  J 
library ;  2,  to  have  the  J  books  by  themselves  at  the  end  of 
each  class  number ;  3,  to  have  the  J  books  in  alfabetic 
order  among  other  books  on  the  same  subject.  In  this  last 
case  the  J  is  useful  only  to  call  attention  plainly  to  their 
juvenil  character. 

The  same  marking  is  used  for  all  these  plans,  and  one  can 
be  changed  into  the  other  by  simply  distributing  the  books 
the  other  way,  and  telling  the  attendants  that  it  has  been 
done.  Juvenil  books  go  with  adult  books  of  the  same 
class,  unless  a  special  J  library  is  made  containing  all 
juvenils. 

Biografy.  Similarly  it  is  recommended  that  the  large  class  of  indi- 
vidual biografy,  as  to  the  best  treatment  of  which  there  is  great  difference 
of  opinion,  and  should  be  markt  B  in  place  of  the  subject  number.  See 
p.  15,  Book  numbers;  and  tables  "  920  Biografy." 

Instead  of  the  plan  printed  in  the  tables,  biografy  may  be  distributed  as 
far  as  possible  among  the  subjects  it  illustrates,  leaving,  of  course,  under 
B  lives  not  bearing  specially  on  any  subject  ;  e.  g.  all  lives  of  musicians 
go  under  780  and  its  subdivisions,  the  life  of  Wagner  being  782.  Even  in 
this  arrangement  it  is  better  to  indicate  that  it  is  biografyr  putting  B  before 
the  class  number  ;  i.  e.  mark  Wagner's  life  B782.  (See  also  Book  num- 
bers, p.  17.) 

Parallel  libraries.  This  treatment  of  fiction,  juvenils,  and  biografy 
illustrates  the  principle  of  parallel  libraries.  Its  other  chief  application  is 
for  reference  and  language  collections.  Some  libraries  have  a  constituency 
not  reading  English,  and  so  need  a  parallel  library  in  German,  or  Swedish, 
or  French,  etc.  This  is  most  easily  made  by  simply  prefixing  the  initial 
of  the  language  to  the  class  number.     The  German    parallel  library  is 


Variations  21 

made  by  simply  putting  all  G's  together  and  arranging  by  class  numbers. 
This  plan  has  proved  very  satisfactory  in  actual  use. 

To  separate  books  most  needed  for  reference,  mark  R  before  class  num- 
bers, and  arrange  the  books  together,  as  an  R  library.  When  the  books 
are  to  go  into  the  general  collection  again,  a  line  can  be  drawn  thru  this 
letter.  In  the  same  way  it  often  happens  that  a  general  private  library  is 
given  on  condition  that  it  be  kept  together ;  e.  g,  the  Phoenix  library  of 
Columbia  college.  This  has  P  prefixt  to  the  class  number,  and  thus  is  a 
parallel  library  by  itself.  An  initial  is  better  in  such  cases  than  a  *  or 
similar  mark,  since  the  initial  helps  the  memory  and  is  just  as  brief.  The 
same  plan  applies,  of  course,  if  the  library  has  an  "  inferno  "  for  books 
not  used  without  permits,  or  more  distant  rooms  where  books  worth  keep- 
ing but  seldom  calld  for  can  be  arranged  in  a  parallel  storage  library. 

Combining  language  and  literature.  The  same  principle  can  be  applied 
also  in  combining  each  language  with  its  literature,  if  it  is  preferd  to  abolish 
the  class,  Philology,  and  make  it  simply  an  appendix  to  Literature.  The 
reverse  would  hold  true  if  a  philologist  wisht  to  abolish  Literature  and 
make  it  an  appendix  to  Philology ;  e.  g.  using  82p  for  English  philology, 
and  adding  philology  subdivisions,  English  dictionaries  would  become 
82P3,  English  grammars  82P5,  etc.,  and  arrange  either  just  before  or  just 
after  English  literature,  820,  821,  etc.  For  a  better  plan  see  below, 
Broken  order. 

2  Broken  order.  Another  common  and  often  desirable 
variation  for  shelf  arrangement  is  to  break  the  sequence 
of  the  numbers,  in  order  to  get  books  most  used  nearest 
the  delivery  desk.  The  strict  theory  is  to  keep  the  whole 
1000  numbers  in  exact  sequence ;  but  a  higher  rule  to  be 
obeyd  everywhere  is  to  sacrifice  any  theory  for  a  substan- 
tial gain.  Practically  it  will  seldom  happen  that  it  is  not 
best  to  break  the  order  of  the  classes.  Often  divi- 
sions are  best  arranged  out  of  numeric  place;  e.  g.  520 
Astronomy  may  be  wanted  in  a  room  accessible  at  night ; 
fiction,  juvenils,  and  biografy  are  always  wanted  near  the 
delivery  desk  in  a  public  library,  and  in  strict  order  are  as 
likely  to  come  at  the  most  distant  point.  Various  local 
reasons  may  make  a  broken  order  desirable.  There  need 
be  no  hesitation  in  adopting  it  if  enough  is  gaind,  but  there 
should  be  charts  clearly  showing  where  each  division  starts  ; 
e.  g.  after  430  "  Preceding  830;  "  after  520  "  In  observatory." 
The  rule  is  to  specify  where  books  may  be  found  that  have 
been   entirely  removed   from   the  general   library  arrange- 


22  Abridged  Decimal  Classification 

ment.  The  page  of  ioo  divisions  is  reprinted  on  cards  with 
wide  margins  for  just  this  use.  Opposit  each  division  is 
markt  its  beginning  on  the  shelves,  and  it  is  easy  to  vary  the 
order  as  much  as  necessary,  tho  of  course  the  nearer  the 
divisions  run  in  regular  order  i  to  99,  the  easier  it  is  for  a 
stranger  to  find  his  way  about.  Wherever  variations  from 
the  printed  order  are  made,  a  wood  or  cardboard  dummy  in 
the  regular  place  should  have  markt  on  its  side  the  present 
location  of  the  subject  removed;  e.  g.  "491  will  be  found 
preceding  891." 

This  broken-order  plan  is  best  for  bringing  together  the 
philology  and  literature  of  each  language  without  altering 
numbers  or  prefixing  any  letter.  Let  420  be  shelvd  just 
ahead  of  820,  430  ahead  of  830,  and  so  for  all  languages, 
making  the  general  note  that  all  400's  are  shelvd  just 
ahead  of  the  corresponding  8oo's. 

3  Pro  and  con  division  of  topics.  In  many  cases  it  is  very  useful 
to  separate  the  books  on  a  topic  with  strongly  markt  sides,  so  that  either 
set  of  views  and  arguments  may  be  seen  by  itself;  e.  g.  337,  Protection 
and  Free  Trade.  The  number  alone  may  be  used  for  general  works, 
giving  facts,  etc.,  and  advocates  and  opponents  may  be  separated  by 
+  and  —  for  positiv  and  negativ,  or  by  p  and  c,  the  initials  for  pro  and 
con,  words  which,  tho  short,  are  too  long  for  a  circulating  library  to  charge. 
In  reference  libraries,  on  cards,  etc.,  most  will  prefer  to  write  out  pro  and 
con,  to  distinguish  the  two  groups.     The  order  on  the  shelves  is,  of  course, 

c  p 

alfabetic,  viz  337,  337,  337;  or  if  +  and  —  are  used,  the  usual  order  is 
followd:  +,  — .  These  letters  or  signs  should  be  written  above  or  prefixt  to 
the  class  number,  for  if  written  337c,  337  — ,  etc.,  the  space  at  the  end  should 
be  left  free  for  other  figures  if  it  were  decided  later  to  class  more  closely. 

4  Unassignd  numbers.  The  one  and  two  figure  numbers  1-99  are 
available  for  special  uses  without  confusion  with  tables  or  index,  for  initial 
o  is  printed  in  the  tables  and  index  for  all  numbers  before  100.  In  classi- 
fication it  sometimes  happens  that  the  first  two  figures  are  obvious  at  a 
glance,  but  time  must  be  taken  to  determin  the  third.  It  is  convenient 
to  write  these  first  figures,  but  if  a  mathematical  book  receives  its  first  two 
figures  (51),  this  unfinisht  number  is  liable  to  be  confused  with  the  two- 
figure  number  51.  This  danger  may  be  largely  avoided  by  writing  the 
decimal  point  after  a  blank  ;  e.  g.  51   .,  to  show  that  a  figure  is  omitted. 

These  four  notes  suggest  the  range  of  variations  that  may  be  made  in 
the  Decimal  classification  and  illustrate  its  adaptability  to  widely  different 
conditions.  For  book  numbers  which  decide  the  order  of  material  after 
it  is  groupt  into  its  final  classes,  see  page  17  and  Library  notes  no.  II. 


Other  uses  23 

OTHER   USES 

Tho  the  system  was  devised  for  library  catalog  and  shelf  arrangement, 
22  years'  use  has  developt  many  new  applications  ;  but  the  essential 
character  of  the  plan  has  remaind  unchanged  from  the  first.  Nearly 
every  administrativ  department  feels  directly  the  great  economy,  and  in 
every  field  of  literary  activity  this  classification  has  been  found  a  labor- 
saving  tool,  whose  practical  usefulness  has  exceeded^  the  most  sanguin 
hopes  of  its  early  friends. 

Bookstores.  The  plan  is  a  great  convenience  to  both  dealers  and 
customers,  when  applied  to  the  miscellaneous  stock  of  a  bookstore.  Very 
often  a  much-wanted  book,  specially  if  not  recently  publisht,  is  reported 
"not  in  stock,"  when  such  an  arrangement  by  subjects  would  have  re- 
veald  its  place  at  once.  Specialists  often  find  on  the  shelves  books  that 
they  would  never  have  orderd,  but  are  glad  to  buy  after  examination. 
Experience  proves  it  a  profitable  thing  for  a  dealer  to  arrange  his  books  so 
that  each  person  may  find  those  in  which  he  is  interested  without  examin- 
ing the  entire  stock. 

Scrap  books.  The  plan  has  proved  of  great  service  in  preserving 
newspaper  clippings.  Scrap  sheets  of  uniform  size  are  used,  with  the  class 
number  of  the  subject  written  in  the  upper  corner  of  the  front  edge  of  the 
page,  and  clippings  are  mounted  on  the  sheet  as  in  a  common  scrap-book. 
When  one  sheet  is  full,  another  is  inserted  at  the  exact  place.  Thus  per- 
fect classification  is  kept  up  without  blank  sheets,  and  at  the  smallest  outlay 
of  money  and  trouble.  This  "L.  B.  scrap  book"  is  for  most  persons  the 
best  form.  These  sheets  are  then  arranged  numerically  like  the  subject 
card  catalog,  the  sheets  of  each  class  being  farther  arranged,  when  de- 
sirable, under  alfabetic  subheads.  Scraps  thus  mounted  are  shelvd  either 
in  manila  pamflet  cases  or  in  patent  binders. 

Index  rerums.  These  are  best  made  on  the  standard  P  size  (7.5  x 
12.5  cm),  card  or  slip.  Long  study  and  experience  prove  that  the  stock 
L,2ooa  is  best  for  private  indexes,  etc.  It  costs  only  half  as  much  as  the 
Br  400,"  which  is  largely  used  for  public  library  catalogs,  takes  only  half 
the  room,  and  gives  great  satisfaction. 

Where  durability  and  convenience  of  handling  are  less  important  than 
the  strictest  economy,  common  heavy  writing  paper  may  be  used;  but 
most  novices  greatly  diminish  the  usefulness  of  the  card  system  by  using 
ordinary  machine-cut  cards  or  slips  which  vary  in  hight  so  much  as  to 
make  quick  and  accurate  manipulation  impossible.  The  extreme  varia- 
tion that  should  be  tolerated  is  1  millimeter  or  ^  in.  This  will  be  under- 
stood by  placing  a  7.4  cm  card  between  two  7.5  cm  cards.'  The  fingers 
make  a  bridge  across  the  taller  cards  and  the  lower  one  is  missed  entirely 
in  rapid  turning.     Cards  must  be  cut  by  accurate  gages  or  they  will  lose

half  their  value,  and  in  many  cases  make  it  necessary  to  recopy  the 
material  at  a  cost  tenfold  greater  than  to  have  thrown  away  the  imper- 
fectly cut  cards  or  slips. 

The  class  number  is  written  in  the  upper  left  corner,  any  alfabetic  sub- 
ject head  follows  at  the  right,  and  notes  fill  the  card  below.  The  cards 
are  then  filed  in  order  of  class  numbers  like  the  subject  card  catalog, 
the  cards  of  each  class  being  farther  arranged,  as  in  case  of  the  scrap 
sheets,  according  tp  any  alfabetic  subheads.  Scores  of  devices  for  con- 
venient handling  and  storing  of  these  slips  and  of  scrap  sheets  and  pam- 
fiets  are  already  manufactured.  Details  will  be  found  in  the  full  descriptiv 
and  illustrated  catalog. 

Another  admirable  form  is  similar  to  the  L.  B.  scrap-book  or  shelf  list ;  in 
fact,  it  is  simply  a  shelf  list  without  the  printed  head  and  colum  lines.  The  sub- 
ject number  goes  in  the  upper  corner,  and  all  notes  on  that  subject  are  written 
on  the  sheet  below.  This  book  fits  an  ordinary  shelf,  has  the  advantage  of  a 
full  letter  page  in  sight  at  once,  and  holds  over  five  times  as  much  as  the  pos- 
tal card.  Of  course  the  system  can  be  applied  to  slips  or  sheets  of  any  size, 
but  there  are  literally  hundreds  of  accessories  and  conveniences  exactly 
adapted  to  these  two  sizes,  which  are  used  tenfold  more  than  all  others 
combined  ;  so  it  is  folly  for  one  to  begin  on  another  size,  and  lose  the  ad- 
vantages of  this  uniformity.  If  intermediate  sizes  must  be  had,  the  ones 
most  used  and  least  objectionable  are  Note,  12.5,  x  20  cm,  and  Magazine, 
17.5  x  25  cm.  There  are  repeated  cases  where  users  of  some  other  size 
have  finally  found  it  profitable  to  change  to  either  the  Postal,  7.5  x  12.5, 
or  to  the  Letter,  20  x  25  cm,  even  at  the  cost  of  rewriting  many  notes. 

Note  books  are  best  in  this  last  described  form.  The  much  poorer 
method  is  to  take  a  bound  blank  book,  and  assign  the  class  numbers  in 
order,  giving  about  the  space  it  is  thought  each  will  require,  and,  when  the 
pages  so  assignd  are  full,  note  at  the  bottom  of  the  page  where  the  sub- 
ject is  continued.  This  has  all  the  objections  of  the  old  fixt  location  as 
compared  with  the  relativ,  and  will  hardly  be  adopted  by  any  person  who 
has  ever  seen  the  simplicity  and  economy  of  the  shelf-list  system. 

Topical  indexes.  The  class  numbers  are  used  in  indexing  books 
read,  usually  by  making  the  entries  in  the  index  rerum  under  proper  num- 
bers. The  number  takes  the  place  of  a  series  of  words,  and  the  results 
can  be  handled,  arranged,  and  found  much  quicker  because  of  the  simple 
numerals. 

The  advantages  of  the  system  for  making  topical  indexes  of  collected 
works,  periodicals,  transactions,  etc.  are  evident.  These  consolidated  in- 
dexes may  be  arranged  together  with  the  card  catalog  of  the  books,  or  by 
themselves,  as  seems  best  in  each  case. 

It  would  exceed  the  limits  of  this  brief  description  to  notice  all  the 
varied  applications  of  the  system.  Enough  have  been  mentiond  to  show 
its  wide  adaptability  to  the  wants  of  the  librarian  and  the  student.

on  is  by  Authors.     If  by  Subjects  they  go  in  016. 

012-016  include  both  bibliografies  and  catalogs.  017-019  is  limited  to  catalogs 
of  general  collections. 

012  Of  individual  authors 

Alfabeted  by  bibliografees,  not  by  compilers ;  e.  g.  Chaucer,  Dante,  Ruskin,  etc. 

013  Of  special  classes  of  authors 

e.  g.  Books  written  by  Jesuits,  by  Roman  catholics,  by  members  of  the  Bavarian 
academy,  etc.,  or  these  may  go  with  the  church,  society,  etc.  with  references 
here. 

014  Of  special  forms.     Anonyms,  pseudonyms,  etc. 

015  Of  special  countries 

Books  publisht  in  the  country.  Publishers'  lists,  current  publications.  Bibliografy  of 
books  publisht  in  England,  as  Lowndes  or  English  catalog. 

The  history  of  literature,  i.  e.  belles  lettres,  poetry,  drama,  fiction,  etc.  goes,  of  course, 
with  those  topics  in  800;  but  the  literary  history  of  any  given  place  or  period 
covering  the  writings  on  all  subjects  as  well  as  in  literature,  is  bibliografy,  and 
goes  usually  in  015,  tho  the  literary  history  of  some  special  class  is  013.

Library  and  sale  catalogs 

Catalogs  of  any  special  subject,  whether  subject,  author,  or  dictionary,  go  under  its 
subject  number,  in  016,  which  is  the  ruling  heading  wherever  it  conflicts  with 
another.  017-019  therefore  includes  only  catalogs  of  general  collections,  limited 
to  no  one  class  or  subject. 

01 7  Clast  catalogs.      Systematic  or  logical 

For  all  forms  of  alfabetic  subject  catalogs,  see  019.    See  016  for  Bibliografies. 

018  Author  Catalogs       See  on  for  Bibliografies. 

A  volume  containing  both  author  and  subjecl  catalogs  is  more  useful  in  017.  018 
includes  accession,  chronologic,  and  any  other  forms  (except  subject  and  dic- 
tionary) of  catalogs  of  collections. 

019  Dictionary  catalogs.     Alfabetico-clast,  etc.

023  Government  and  service 

024  Regulations  for  readers 

025  Administration.     Departments 

025  is  for  the  librarian's  part.  The  trustees  build  and  furnish  (022);  make  rules  for 
government  and  service  (023),  and  regulations  for  readers  (024);  but  the  adminis- 
tration involves  questions  of  its  own,  which,  however,  are  closely  allied  to  topics 
in  021-024  and  elsewhere  ;  e.  g.  the  librarian  must  know  his  side  of  binding, 
and  be  able  to  give  proper  directions  and  supervision,  but  need  not  know  ail 
the  details  of  the  binder's  craft  (686). 

Administration  includes  Supervision  ;  Acquisition  ;  Utilization  ;  Preservation  ;  i.  e.  the 
librarian's  duty  to  books  is  to  Get,  Use,  Keep. 

026  Libraries  on  special  subjects 

Histories,  reports,  statistics,  bulletins,  handbooks,  circulars,  and  everything  about  the 
library  not  more  required  in  one  of  the  sections  above  ;  e.  g.  a  Medical  library, 
a  Chess  library,  but  the  catalog  of  a  Chess  library  is  016.7  ;  blanks,  etc.  from 
any  library  go  in  025,  as  more  used  in  studying  topics:  but,  if  history  of  indi- 
vidual libraries  is  specialized,  duplicates  are  also  desirable  under  the  library  in 
026-027,  thus  making  a  complete  set  of  its  publications. 

027  General  libraries 

This  includes  both  circulating  and  reference;  i.  e.  all  not  limited  to  special  subjects. 

028  Reading  and  aids 

See  also  374,  Self  education. 

029  Literary  methods  and  labor-savers 

Much  in  025  and  028  belongs  equally  under  029  in  its  full  meaning,  but  practical 
convenience  is  best  servd  by  keeping  such  material  under  those  heads  instead  of 
separating  a  part  here.

Philology 


400    Philology.    General  works 

In  Philology  the  general  works  put  under  400-419  deal  almost  entirely  with  the  Indo- 
European  languages.  They  are  put  here  because  they  cover  most  of  the  divisions 
of  this  class,  and  in  practice  are  most  convenient  here.  Under  439,  479,  and  489 
are  placed  books  limited  to  the  Teutonic,  Romance  or  Hellenic  groups,  and 
under  491  are  placed  only  such  general  works  as  are  specifically  limited  to  the 
Indo-European  group.

423  Dictionaries.      Idioms 

Put  a  dictionary  of  two  languages  with  the  less  known  language.  Under  423  pu*  only 
English- English  dictionaries.  Put  an  English-French  dictionary  with  French. 
443;  a  French-Latin  dictionary  with  Latin,  473.  If  in  several  languages,  put  with 
413,  or  with  least  known.  This  plan  brings  together  under  each  ot  the  less  known, 
all  the  dictionaries  for  translating  either  into  or  from  that  language.  Some  prefer 
to  put  each  dictionary  under  the  first  language;  i.  e.  that  bv  which  it  is  alfabeted. 
This  gives  under  each  language,  regardless  of  its  familiarity,  all  dictionaries  for 
translating  from  it,  but  none  for  translating  into  it.  These  must  besought  under 
the  language  from  which  the  translation  is  to  be  made.  For  a  cosmopolitan 
library  this  plan  is  simplest  and  best ;  but  in  an  English  library,  the  first  plan, 
with  only  English  dictionaries  in  423,  and  both  in  and  out  dictionaries  together 
under  little  known  tongues  is  more  convenient.  References  in  either  case  show 
what  may  be  found  in  the  other  place.

more  interest  elsewhere.  But  an  account  of  a  specific  manufacture  is  commonly 
most  useful  with  its  own  subject ;  e  g,  a  steam  engine  is  certainly  made  of  metal, 
but  its  manufacture  should  go  under  621 . 1,  not  67a.  '1  he  character  of  the  library 
often  decides  the  p'ace  of  greatest  interest.  An  agricultural  library  would  prefer 
the  manufacture  and  everything  about  wood  churns  with  the  dairy,  637,  while  a 
manufacturing  library  might  prefer  it  with  other  wood  manufactures  in  674.  _  A 
general  librarv  will  incline  to  the  special  subject,  as  a  more  minute  classification 
is  thus  obtaind.  and  references  under  670  answer  inquiries  for  all  the  library  has 
on  the  subject  of  brass  or  rubber  or  paper  manufactures.  Whether  grotipt  by 
use  or  material,  if  sought  from  the  other  standpoint,  the  references  show  the 
resources  promptly.  As  a  rule  the  use  is  the  better  classification,  being  more 
minute  and  oftener  wanted.  But  if  the  uses  are  various  the  general  head  is 
better;  e.  g.  bells  are  for  scores  of  distinct  uses,  but  their  manufacture  is  a  unit; 
but  all  churns  are  for  the  dairy.

RELATIV  SUBJECT  INDEX 


HOW  TO  USE  THIS  INDEX 

Find  the  subject  wanted  in  its  alfabetic  place  in  the  index. 
The  number  after  it  is  its  class  number  and  refers  to  the  place 
where  the  topic  will  be  found,  in  numerical  order  of  class 
numbers,  on  the  shelves,  shelf-lists  or  in  the  subject  catalog, 
if  used.  All  class  numbers  are  decimal;  e.  g.  914.29  travel  in 
Wales,  comes  before  914.3  travel  in  Germany,  and  both  of 
them  before  915  travel  in  Asia.  Printed  labels  on  the  shelves 
or  drawer  fronts  guide  readily  to  the  class  number  sought. 

Under  this  class  number  will  be  found  the  resources  of  the 
library  on  the  subject  desired.  Other  adjoining  subjects  may 
often  be  profitably  consulted ;  e.g.  a  description  of  Niagara 
Falls  is  wanted  and  the  index  refers  to  917.47,  but  much  on 
this  topic  is  likely  also  to  be  found  in  917.4  (travel  in  north 
Atlantic  states)  and  even  in  917.3  (travel  in  United  States). 

This  index  contains 

in  a  single  alfabet  all  subjects  named  in  the  tables,  together 
with  their  synonyms  and  such  other  topics  as  are  thought 
most  likely  to  be  needed  by  libraries  using  this  abridgment. 
If  nothing  is  found  under  a  number,  it  shows  that  the  library 
does  not  yet  possess  any  book  on  that  topic. 

It  does  not  include 

all  names  of  places,  minerals,  plants,  etc.;  but  gives  only  those 
used  in  these  tables  and  a  farther  selection  of  the  most  common 
and  useful.  It  is  not  a  biografic  dictionary,  and  gives  no  names 
of  persons  as  biografic  headings,  but  only  such  as  appear  in 
connection  with  some  subject  like  literature  or  history.
